Coming Out of the Absolute, Part 1

I offer the following for how we came into form, out of the Absolute.  This is pretty dense stuff, so hang onto the guardrails, and just let it resonate.  See what is true for you.  I bring this up now as we are running out of time to leisurely consider our own development. Extraordinary changes are about to occur, and we will need every available resource both within and without.  

What we are now as a person is based on what we have realized and chosen while moving out from the Absolute until fully landing here as a person.  We are no longer moving outward so much into more form, rather our focus is to now move inward, going back, realizing what we are and have originated from.  We are coming full-circle, being everything that we truly are while living here as a person in this world.

Our movement inward is like realizing a vast internal ocean, a vast holy ocean appearing as streams of beingness. In our movement back to the Absolute we lose internal forms.  We find that we are both here in form and losing our old identification with it. These inner forms might be called inner coverings over what we first are.  As we let go, we begin to identify with what is more than us.  This enables us to see more of ourselves, and each uncovering allows us to see a new level of meaning.  As we go back in our awareness, we see that we more than let go, we actively respond to what is next.

In first coming out of the Absolute, Source, you did so as a response to an available form, taking you as meaning into its first form--the very beginning of I.  Your very first movement, first breath and expression out of the Absolute was meaning knowing meaning. There was no ability to reflect on anything because there was no self yet. At this stage you could only be meaning knowing.

What follows is a movement out and then a movement back, much like breathing.  Each movement back is less than the movement out. First, as meaning you breathed in form and became what you breathed in.  You first movement breathing in was meaning knowing.  You next movement was to breathe out, all the way back to being meaning that has no need to know. There is now a pattern that has begun and your response is to breathe in the next level of form. This form is being knowing. Beingness has been added as a form. You could now be knowing, a new form. After this inhale of form, you exhale back to being meaning, but this time you move from being knowing into just knowing, and then into being meaning. You had to move through a level of form into another level of form, into meaning.

From here, you breathe in and out through more and more forms because of the pattern that has begun and because there are always more forms.  You move into a self and then into a person. Each time you exhale, return, you are more aware of your ability to move.  You realize there is a power to move, to choose to move almost all the way back to the Absolute. You also realize that as awareness you might be able to have more, and you also realize you can direct the more. You now have an ability to relate to creating more as a self, instead of the next true more. You can now use your awareness to alter, even distort, the rhythm.  

In our power to distort, we change our awareness, our home base that we come from.  It shifts from being meaning, to knowing, and later being and even later self.  The breathing in and out always continues.

What matters here is that as awareness how far back do you breathe out, and then as awareness how far do you breathe into form. You home base changes because you have the power to make that happen, and that shifts your fundamental orientation until what you create is a self. You become a self that has a person and a life.  At the same time, you are also a self that inwardly has a being, and knowing.  There is more than that, but it is almost unconfrontable.

Be the vast holy ocean of awareness within you. Go home. Be home, give it all that you are at every level.  What you know of reality will be so much more. I am That I am.  I am This I am.
